The Hottest Women On Instagram

70 Gorgeous Women You Need To Be Following On Instagram

The holy trifecta of Facebook, Twitter and Instagram have given people the ability to directly control their images and connect to their fanbases faster than ever before.

In the case of Instagram, that means beautiful women can share photos with their fans as often as they want, whether it be a professional shoot or a mirror selfie. Entire careers and media empires are being built on the platform — and we're taking a look at some of the women of Instagram who are more than worth a follow.

This list isn't anywhere near exhaustive. We've stayed away from the biggest A-List celebrities, except in a couple of places where their Instagram accounts are truly noteworthy. That's for a pretty simple reason; you don't need us to tell you that Taylor Swift or Kim Kardashian has an Instagram account.

We've undoubtedly left out hundreds of beautiful, fit and deserving women. If we've badly goofed, send us an email at editorial@askmen.com and tell us who we're missing. What is certain though is that every single woman on this list is well worth a follow. Enjoy!

Chrissy Teigen

More than anyone else on this list, Chrissy Teigen had made waves with her Instagram account, prompting full-blown controversies on more than one occasion when she dared to #freethenipple. Her account is one to watch, for more reasons than one.

Charlotte McKinney

Dubbed "the next Kate Upton," since bursting onto the scene with a Carls Jr. Super Bowl Ad, Charlotte McKinney has been popping up everywhere; music videos, Guess Jeans ads, on the screen and, for our purposes, her Instagram account.

Kara Del Toro

Model Kara Del Toro has really been crushing it as of late. Especially on her Instagram account, where she's just been posting one stunning pic after the other. And we're getting pretty jealous of just how much time she gets to spend on the beach.

Amber Rose

Hip-hop model Amber Rose turned all kinds of heads in January 2015 when she posed in high heels on a balcony in a monokini. Few women can pull it off; Amber Rose did it so well she even garnered compliments from her ex-husband, Wiz Khalifa.

Ruby Rose

Ruby Rose is an outspoken activist within the LGBTQI community. The Australian model overcame taunts and bullying after coming out as a lesbian, and further challenged stereotypes when she publicly identified as "gender fluid" and occasionally dresses up in drag. More recently, she's been a star of Orange Is The New Black, and has even been known to try her hand as a DJ.

Paulina Gretzky

Paulina Gretzky is the daughter of the greatest hockey player of all time, but is one of the few daughters of famous athletes able to translate a name into their own fame. She's done that, helped considerably of course by her striking looks and proliferation of bikini shots. Golf fans will also catch a glimpse or two of her husband, PGA Tour pro member Dustin Johnson.

Emily Ratajkowski

Yes, it's the girl from the Blurred Lines video. But she's so much more now, having leveraged one spectacular gig into a respected acting career and becoming one of the most prominent models out there.

Elsa Hosk

2014 was the year people around the world fell in love with Elsa; women and children with the Frozen character, and with their fathers and husbands being a tad more interested in Elsa Hosk, the Swedish model and former basketball player. Aside from her being gorgeous, and now a Victoria's Secret Angel, Hosk's Instagram account is playful; expect to see plenty of offbeat selfies and candid moments alongside her modelling shots.

Arianny Celeste

For years Arianny Celeste has been the main reason guys don't rush to the fridge for another beer in between rounds of UFC fights, and was the undisputed female face of the MMA organization until Ronda Rousey showed. You'll find plenty of sexy shots of the UFC's prime ring card girl on her Instagram, but also some nice training and fitness shots.

Kendall Jenner

A sorta-Kardashian, Kendall Jenner has been making constant waves with her Instagram presence, proving that A) the Kardashian star-making machine is alive and well, and B) good looks do run in the family. It's not just that she's good-looking (she is), you'll also get an inside look at what it's like growing up both spoiled and exposed to the spotlight at a very young age.

Blac Chyna

Hip-hop/urban-style model Blac Chyna is something akin to a more outrageous verison of Nicki Minaj, whom she resembles. Her 3.2 million Instagram followers can attest to why she's so attention-grabbing: she lives the high life, she's constantly repping products, and she's also always showing off her insane levels of curviness while rubbing shoulders with other celebs like Amber Rose.

Behati Prinsloo

Born in Namibia, the 26-year-old Prinsloo has done pretty well for herself. She married Maroon 5 frontman Adam Levine, has been on the cover and runway just about everywhere, and like a few people on this list, is a Victoria's Secret Angel.

Rona Costa

Rona Costa is going to make you want to either take a cold shower immediately, or strap on your gym shoes, head to the gym to pump some iron and THEN take a cold shower. Her account is essentially half bikini shots, and half shots of her in the gym demonstrating just how she gets her incredible body and levels of fitness.

Bella Hadid

Bella Hadid, the sister of fellow model Gigi, often has the same look on her face. A blank, almost-apathetic looks, lips slightly parted, that will come up in dozens of her photos, and yet you'll never get tired of it. The rapidly rising model is increasingly everywhere, and won't cease anytime soon.

Mizz Twerksum

Twerking has been the mot-du-year for some time now, ever since Miley met Robin. Riding the crest of this phenomenon is Mizz Twerksum, whose account is all about Twerking. If you want twerking almost daily, yes, this is the place to find it.

Michelle Phan

Your girlfriend may have heard more about Michelle Phan than yourself; the Vietnamese American shot to prominence with her video makeup tutorials. One of the first generations of YouTube-made stars, Phan demonstrates any number of pretty makeup arrangements.

Lais Ribeiro

The stunning Lais Ribeiro hails from Brazil, and like her compatriot Adriana Lima, makes us all want to hop on the first flight to Rio de Janeiro. Ribeiro intersperses magnificent photos of herself with scenery and location shots that show off her impressive photo talents.

Lily Aldrige

Lily Aldridge recently appeared in the new Taylor Swift "Bad Blood" video, alongside another bevy of top models. The 30-year-old American's magnificent cheekbones and piercing eyes will stay with you for days after you've clicked off her Instagram account, and that's in no way a bad thing.

Candice Swanepoel

Candice Swanepoel's Instagram account is all about herself and showcasing some absolutely terrific photography. There's also a question as to whether it's possible to take a bad photo of the South African-born model, but that's another matter.

Karlie Kloss

Another Angel, the American-born Karlie Kloss shows off a mixture of artsy shots, sexy photos that will get your heart racing, and gorgeous high fashion photography on her Instagram account. The 6'1" (!) beauty is often spotted on runways all over the world, and brings her Instagram account with her.

Anna Ewers

Not since Heidi Klum graced SI's Swimsuit Issue have we been so excited about a German model. The 22-year-old Ewers is on the rise, bigtime, and she mixes up nearly naked shots with high fashion with fun everyday snaps. Keep your eye on her — not that you'll have much difficulty.

Barbara Palvin

Born in post-communist Hungary, Barbara Palvin has been modelling since she was barely a teenager. Her Instagram account features some of the most consistently stunning snaps you'll see out there, a mix of classy and sexy that will keep you scrolling.

K. Michelle

K Michelle's music career is perhaps best explained to a new listener as a combination of the talented vocal and piano work of Alicia Keys with the forward sexuality and attitude of Nicole Scherzinger. There's plenty of backstage and dressing room shots to feast your eyes on here.

Aubrey O'Day

Aubrey O'Day's striking features, haunting eyes, long blonde hair and copious use of mirror selfies in different outfits may make this the account your and your girlfriend both enjoy surfing through. She combines "girl pretty" features with guy-friendly curves, and alternate fashion-forward outfits with your most Y-chromosome friendly swimwear. There'e something for everyone!

Melanie Iglesias

There are a couple ways to see Melanie Iglesias; you can catch her hosting on MTV, or you can follow her Instagram account. If you do the latter, you'll find her account is dotted with poolside selfies, food shots, photos of dogs, and of course the occasional glamor and modeling shot.

Holly-Daze Coffey

Called one of the "Kardashians of Australian surfing" by the Daily Mail, Holly-Daze Coffey has the kind of Instagram account you'll like only if you enjoy watching a sexy woman surf in incredible locales. So... it's pretty much for everybody.

Ellie Jean Coffey

Similar to her sister Holly-Daze, Ellie Jean is also an Australian surf star, though her account sees a little bit less of her on the water and a little bit more frolicking on the beach. We are yet to complain.

Brittany Renner

Were it up to us, every awful Fitspiration poster would just be replaced with photos of Brittany Renner, who gives men and women alike all the motivation they could ever need to stay fit and hit the gym.

Rihanna

One the one hand, you probably don't us to tell you who Rihanna is or that she has an Instagram account; but on the other, we couldn't leave her out could we? She's made the news a few times thanks to her account, like the time she got banned for violating nudity rules, or more recently, when she responded to rumors of cocaine usage (spawned by an Instagram video, no less) by cheekily posting a photo of her sipping a Coca-Cola though a straw.

Bebe Zeva

Sin City-based Rebeccah Hershkovitz uses Instagram to its full potential, showcasing a kind of hipster-sexy, while running her blog Fated To Be Hated. Unlike the more polished models on this list, you'll see less professional photoshoot images uploaded, and more cellphone snaps in all their Instagram-filtered glory.

Deimante Guobyte

Can you locate Lithuania on a map? Probably not until now, when you'll be looking up Deimante Guobyte's homeland to see if all women from there are quite so pretty. The Baltic beauty has been making waves over the past 12 months; expect her to grow more in the future.

Anna Christina Schwartz

Jayde Rossi

Jayde Rossi looks nowhere near her age of 30, and has worked in Hollywood, as a mentor for foster youth, and is genuinely interesting as well as beautiful. Of course, you probably haven't read a word of this blurb anyway, but hey, what can a man do?

Carmen Jorda

If you've ever been driving by a woman who really knows how to handle a car, you know how sexy it can be. Carmen Jorda is an F1 Development driver for the Lotus team, and while you're bound to see less skin and more chrome on her account, she still manages to get our needles flying up the tach.

Bruna Marquezine

Another Brazilian, Bruna Marquezine might already be someone you follow on Twitter; she has over nine million followers. And no, it's not what you think; most of her photos are just lifestyle or fully-clothed modeling shots.

Elizabeth Barela

Elizabeth Barela is Instagram's version of a girl-next-door; expect to see plenty of funny faces, cat photos, and unmade-up shots where her freckles will come through. Her down-to-earth can't hide the fact that she's pretty damn stunning though.

Shaholly Ayers

Like the rest of the people on this list, Shaholly Ayers is beautiful and sexy, but her advocacy for disabled people and desire to change the way we view them makes her a standout. With less than 2,000 followers, she deserves way more attention.

Amanda David

Shopping for a new bathing suit for your girlfriend? The only sensible way to do it is by going through Amanda David's Instagram, who owns a swimwear company and isn't shy about modeling her creations.

Daniela Dib

Fans of flexibility might be interested in Daniela Dib, a Lebanese-Irish dancer, model and yoga instructor. She splits her time between LA, Vancouver and New York City, three cities that aren't too hard on the eyes either.

Carly Lauren

As you might expect from a former Playboy playmate, Carly Lauren's Instagram feed is full of skin. There are more bikinis here than on Dayton over spring break, and also some inside snaps of the Playboy Mansion as well.

Jannie Phan

Haylie Noire

Haylie Noire. Stunning French model and fitness freak, a self-proclaimed lingerie addict, and someone with photographic sensibilities and posing abilities so good it just caused me to spit out my Froot Loops.

Betty Autier

A known French fashion blogger, Betty Autier has been caryring the flag of 21st century French chic for some time. She built her Instagram following with the help of her ex-boyfriend (and fellow Gaul) Mathieu LeBreton, which brings us to...

Jessica White

It didn't work out with Nick Cannon last year, but let's just say, he's missing out and made a big mistake. Jessica White is quite a catch, and that's putting it mildly. In a recent interview, the Sports Illustrated swimsuit model admitted to having a full-blown orgasm during a squat workout.

Hailey Clauson

If we haven't made the case to you with a simple outtake from her exciting Instagram profile (that you should follow right now), wait until you've seen her topless Sports Illustrated outtakes. Outtakes so sizzling hot, they didn't make the cut in the magazine. Yep, you read that right. Too hot for Sports Illustrated magazine.

Camille Rowe

Supermodel Camille Rowe made the cut for April 2016's Playboy cover. And we have no difficulties understanding why. Back in February, Playboy decided to have models cover up again in their magazine. And while it may be a bit of a shame, it's not going to be a difficult transition with women like Camille Rowe leading the pack.

Irina Shayk

Russian supermodel and international sensation Irina Shayk has been killing it lately on Instagram. To her fans delight, the veteran Sports Illustrated model has been sharing some amazing insights. And when we say insights, we mean the some of the best kind of insights.
